Primary Air (Lower Air Control)
(Figure 11.1)
The primary air is controlled by the lever on the left side of
the appliance. When the control arm is pulled out, less air
is allowed into the fi rebox below the fi re. When the control
arm is pushed in, maximum air is allowed in under the fi re.
This lever is to be used during start up and refueling. If
this air control remains open (pushed in) then you will have
reduced burn times or a potential to overheat the appliance.

Upper Air Control

The upper air control is controlled by the lever on the right
side of the appliance. When the control arm is pulled out,
less air is allowed into the fi rebox through this system.
When the control arm is pushed in, maximum air is allowed
through the system. The function of this air control is to
regulate the burn rate of the fi re and provide air for the air
wash system to keep the glass clean.
When the upper air control is closed and air is reduced
to the air wash system, the glass will soot up. This is
normal and to be expected. To help clean the glass off,
add additional fuel to the fi re, pull out the upper air control
and pull out the lower air control lever for 15-30 minutes
to establish a hot fi re. A hot fi re with the upper air control
open will aid in cleaning the glass.

INSTRUCTION FOR USE
Secondary Air (holes in rear of fi rebox)
This unit is equipped with a secondary combustion system
that cannot be regulated. The purpose of this secondary
system is to provide air that will mix with the combustion
gasses and burn them. This reduces the amount of debris
and gasses being let out into the environment ensuring a
clean burn.

Airwash System

An air wash system is built into the appliance and is
controlled by the air control lever on the right side of the
appliance. Even with this air wash system, the glass panes
will get dirty and have build up. This is normal and can
be cleaned using a simple glass cleaner. Alternate glass
cleaning products specifi cally designed for cleaning glass
panes on wood burning stoves may be available from your
dealer. Contact them directly for product availability.

Front Door Handle Operation

(Figure 11.2)
To open the front door, pull the lever located on the
right side of the unit upwards (be sure to wear the glove
provided if the unit is hot). Carefully swing the door open
from right to left. To close the door swing it shut from left
to right and close by pushing the handle down. When
securing the front door closed, make sure the roller on the
handle is beyond the ramp catch located on the side of the
unit.
